MANILA \u2013 Contrary to former President Fidel V. Ramos\u2019 observation, President Rodrigo Duterte has long-term vision for the Philippines based on the \u201cAmBisyon 2040\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe President does have a long-term vision. It hasn\u2019t really been expounded on, it\u2019s not public knowledge but he does have a vision for that,\u201d Presidential Spokesman Ernesto Abella said in a press briefing.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn fact, even in his inaugural speech, the President described his vision for Filipinos as a comfortable life for all. It is basically a short common phase in order to be able to articulate what is already fully articulated in \u201cAmBisyon 2040,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Last Tuesday, President Ramos said Duterte has yet to lay down his long-term strategic vision for the country.<\/p>\n

Abella said President Duterte\u2019s three-fold mission include: to reduce poverty from 26 to 17 percent; to establish an orderly society by reducing crime, corruption and illegal drugs; and, to seek and final lasting peace with communist and Moro rebels.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn other words, to seek a peaceful nation, no internal wars, to have orderly communities, to have just and fair dealings, and prosperity which is opportunities for all,\u201d Abella said.<\/p>\n

In pursuit of his vision, President Duterte has exercised political will and acted on several issues, according to the Palace spokesman.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne area which has been taking a lot of attention has been his campaign against illegal drugs where his threats against those engaged in the trade and deaths related to the campaign seemed to have outweighed the actual result,\u201d Abella said.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo the President is engaged, not just in a matter of state building but also of nation building which is basically addressing the Filipino mind and character and love for country,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

In the same media briefing, Performance and Project Management Office of the Office of the Cabinet Secretary deputy executive director Jonas George Soriano said the Duterte administration has consulted nearly 7,000 individuals since President Duterte took his oath last June 30.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll of them, being part of a process of understanding what this administration wants and more importantly listening to what they want,\u201d Soriano said.<\/p>\n

Soriano said the consultations with different organizations and stakeholders are part of preparing the \u201cAmBisyon 2040\u201d which soon to be printed out.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe must communicate to our stakeholders in the Philippines and in the world, this is what the Philippines will be doing in the next six years, and in the next 30 years in bringing about development in the Philippines,\u201d Soriano said.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd also bringing about the welfare and security of our people. The platform that we\u2019re working on is combining both the development needs and the security needs of our people,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
